The Crooked Medium's Guide to Terror by Stephen Cox
True terror is a murderer you can’t stop.
London 1882. A carpenter is killed by a train - an eerie, brutal crime. Flamboyant spiritualist medium Mrs Ashton and her sapphic partner Braddie seek justice for the widow.
A charismatic rival medium takes London by storm. Dock-lass Maisie sees her frightening prophesy of vengeance. A noble family is devastated, but worse is to come.
Outgunned and bewildered, the three confront a deadly conspiracy. They risk losing everything
Palmers Green resident Stephen Cox, the successful author of two novels with science fiction elements, Our Child of the Stars and Our Child of Two Worlds, will be publishing his fourth book this month.
The Crooked Medium's Guide to Terror is a follow-up to The Crooked Medium's Guide to Murder, which Stephen launched last year at the independent All Good Bookshop in Turnpike Lane.
Stephen returns there on 19th September to introduce his latest book, which has already garnered some enthusiastic reviews:
"An absolute page-turner that masterfully blends Victorian crime with unearthly menace"
‘Humane, tender and funny … a rare gem among historical thrillers.’
Stephen says, “These are queer, spooky, Victorian mysteries with older two women antagonists at odds with their current morality. Readers praise the extraordinary characters, the twisty plots and the immersive settings. They’re warm and witty, but not cosy.”
Stephen will be at the All Good Bookshop, 35 Turnpike Lane, N8 0EP, on Saturday 19th September from 7pm on.
It was here that Stephen launched the Crooked Medium's Guide to Murder last year.
